"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"
Uchiha Minamoto shook his head, as though he felt sorry for Shimura Danzō.
"Elder Shimura Danzō, you never expected this, did you? Lord Third has already signed your death sentence.
"Your old companion, your old friend, your old comrade personally saw you off on your final journey~"
Those words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Shimura Danzō's ravaged body slumped to the ground like a heap of mud.
He had lost.
Lost completely.
He had not lost in strength.
He had not lost in cunning.
Instead, he had lost to-
Hiruzen Sarutobi.
His dearest friend.
His most hated rival.
The Hokage he had spent his whole life chasing.
Had personally abandoned him.
"Ah... aaah..."
An incoherent, hoarse wail rose from Shimura Danzō's throat.
Clouded tears streamed from his single eye.
Shimura Danzō's will had utterly collapsed.
"Shisui."
Uchiha Minamoto put away the document, his tone flat.
"He's all yours."
"Mm."

"Elder Shimura Danzō."
Uchiha Minamoto's voice grew gentle, as though he were chatting with an old friend.
"Could you tell me what secret intelligence you know?
"About Root, about Elder Mitokado Homura and Elder Utatane Koharu.
"And...
"About Hiruzen Sarutobi!"
Shimura Danzō's body twitched a few times.
Then.
He spoke.
In his hoarse, dry voice, he haltingly spilled everything he knew.
That day, Konoha finally remembered the terror of being ruled by the Sharingan!

An hour later.
Uchiha Minamoto, Shisui, and Yamato walked out of the
